Judges 1

1 After the death of Joshua, the sons of Israel consulted the Lord, saying, “Who will ascend before us, against the Canaanite, and who will be the commander of the war?”

Sesudah Yosua mati, orang Israel bertanya kepada TUHAN: "Siapakah dari pada kami yang harus lebih dahulu maju menghadapi orang Kanaan untuk berperang melawan mereka?"

2 And the Lord said: “Judah shall ascend. Behold, I have delivered the land into his hands.”

Firman TUHAN: "Suku Yehudalah yang harus maju; sesungguhnya telah Kuserahkan negeri itu ke dalam tangannya."

3 And Judah said to his brother Simeon, “Go up with me to my lot, and fight against the Canaanite, so that I also may go forth with you to your lot.” And Simeon went with him.

Lalu berkatalah Yehuda kepada Simeon, saudaranya itu: "Majulah bersama-sama dengan aku ke bagian yang telah diundikan kepadaku dan baiklah kita berperang melawan orang Kanaan, maka akupun akan maju bersama-sama dengan engkau ke bagian yang telah diundikan kepadamu." Lalu Simeon maju bersama-sama dengan dia.

4 And Judah went up, and the Lord delivered the Canaanite, as well as the Perizzite, into their hands. And they struck down ten thousand of the men at Bezek.

Maka majulah suku Yehuda, lalu TUHAN menyerahkan orang Kanaan dan orang Feris ke dalam tangan mereka, dan mereka memukul kalah orang-orang itu dekat Bezek, sepuluh ribu orang banyaknya.

5 And they found Adonibezek at Bezek, and they fought against him, and they struck down the Canaanite and the Perizzite.

Di Bezek mereka menjumpai Adoni-Bezek dan berperang melawan dia, dan mereka memukul kalah orang Kanaan dan orang Feris.

6 Then Adonibezek fled. And they pursued him and captured him, and they cut off the ends of his hands and feet.

Tetapi Adoni-Bezek melarikan diri, lalu mereka mengejarnya, menangkapnya dan memotong ibu jari dari tangannya dan dari kakinya.

7 And Adonibezek said: “Seventy kings, with the ends of their hands and feet amputated, have been gathering the remnants of food under my table. Just as I have done, so has God repaid me.” And they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.

Kata Adoni-Bezek: "Ada tujuh puluh raja dengan terpotong ibu jari tangan dan kakinya memungut sisa-sisa makanan di bawah mejaku; sesuai dengan yang kulakukan itu, demikianlah dibalaskan Allah kepadaku." Kemudian ia dibawa ke Yerusalem dan mati di sana.

8 Then the sons of Judah, besieging Jerusalem, seized it. And they struck it with edge of the sword, delivering the entire city to be burned.

Sesudah itu bani Yehuda berperang melawan Yerusalem, merebutnya lalu memukulnya dengan mata pedang dan memusnahkan kota itu dengan api.

9 And afterward, descending, they fought against the Canaanites who were living in the mountains, and in the south, and in the plains.

Kemudian bani Yehuda maju berperang melawan orang Kanaan, yang diam di pegunungan, di Tanah Negeb dan di Daerah Bukit.

10 And Judah, going forth against the Canaanites who were living at Hebron, (the name of which from antiquity was Kiriath-Arba) struck down Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.

Lalu suku Yehuda bergerak menyerang orang Kanaan yang diam di Hebron--nama Hebron dahulu adalah Kiryat-Arba--dan memukul kalah Sesai, Ahiman dan Talmai.

11 And continuing on from there, he went to the inhabitants of Debir, the old name of which was Kiriath-Sepher, that is, the City of Letters.

Dari sana mereka bergerak menyerang penduduk Debir. Nama Debir dahulu adalah Kiryat-Sefer.

12 And Caleb said, “Whoever will strike Kiriath-Sepher, and will lay waste to it, I will give to him my daughter Achsah as wife.”

Berkatalah Kaleb: "Siapa yang mengalahkan dan merebut Kiryat-Sefer, kepadanya akan kuberikan Akhsa, anakku, menjadi isterinya."

13 And when Othniel, the son of Kenaz, a younger brother of Caleb, had seized it, he gave his daughter Achsah to him in marriage.

Dan Otniel, anak Kenas adik Kaleb, merebut kota itu; lalu Kaleb memberikan Akhsa, anaknya, kepadanya menjadi isterinya.

14 And as she was traveling on a journey, her husband admonished her, so that she would request a field from her father. And since she had sighed while sitting on her donkey, Caleb said to her, “What is it?”

Ketika perempuan itu tiba, dibujuknya suaminya untuk meminta sebidang ladang kepada ayahnya. Maka turunlah perempuan itu dari keledainya, lalu berkatalah Kaleb kepadanya: "Ada apa?"

15 But she responded: “Give a blessing to me. For you have given me a dry land. Also give a watered land.” Therefore, Caleb gave to her the upper watered land and the lower watered land.

Jawabnya kepadanya: "Berikanlah kepadaku suatu hadiah; telah kauberikan kepadaku tanah yang gersang, berikanlah juga kepadaku mata air." Lalu Kaleb memberikan kepadanya mata air yang di hulu dan mata air yang di hilir.

16 Now the sons of the Kenite, the relative of Moses, ascended from the City of Palms, with the sons of Judah, into the wilderness of his lot, which is toward the south of Arad. And they lived with him.

Keturunan Hobab, ipar Musa, orang Keni itu, maju bersama-sama dengan bani Yehuda dari kota pohon korma ke padang gurun Yehuda di Tanah Negeb dekat Arad; lalu mereka menetap di antara penduduk di sana.

17 Then Judah went out with his brother Simeon, and together they struck the Canaanites who were living at Zephath, and they put them to death. And the name of the city was called Hormah, that is, Anathema.

Yehuda maju bersama-sama dengan Simeon, saudaranya itu, lalu mereka memukul kalah orang Kanaan, penduduk Zefat; mereka menumpas kota itu. Sebab itu kota itu dinamai Horma.

18 And Judah seized Gaza, with its parts, and Ashkelon as well as Ekron, with their borders.

Selanjutnya suku Yehuda merebut Gaza dengan daerahnya, Askelon dengan daerahnya dan Ekron dengan daerahnya.

19 And the Lord was with Judah, and he possessed the mountains. But he was not able to wipe out the inhabitants of the valley. For they abounded with chariots armed with scythes.

Dan TUHAN menyertai suku Yehuda, sehingga mereka menduduki pegunungan itu; tetapi mereka tidak dapat menghalau penduduk yang di lembah, sebab orang-orang ini mempunyai kereta-kereta besi.

20 And just as Moses had said, they gave Hebron to Caleb, who destroyed out of it the three sons of Anak.

Kepada Kaleb telah diberikan Hebron, seperti yang dikatakan Musa dahulu, dan dari sana telah dihalaukannya anak Enak yang tiga itu.

21 But the sons of Benjamin did not wipe out the Jebusite inhabitants of Jerusalem. And the Jebusite has lived with the sons of Benjamin in Jerusalem, even to the present day.

Tetapi orang Yebus, penduduk kota Yerusalem, tidak dihalau oleh bani Benyamin, jadi orang Yebus itu masih diam bersama-sama dengan bani Benyamin di Yerusalem sampai sekarang.

22 The house of Joseph also ascended against Bethel, and the Lord was with them.

Keturunan Yusuf juga maju menyerang Betel, dan TUHAN menyertai mereka.

23 For when they were besieging the city, which was previously called Luz,

Keturunan Yusuf menyuruh orang mengintai Betel itu--nama kota itu dahulu adalah Lus.

24 they saw a man departing from the city, and they said to him, “Reveal to us the entrance to the city, and we will act with mercy toward you.”

Ketika pengintai-pengintai itu melihat seorang keluar dari kota itu, maka berkatalah mereka kepadanya: "Tolong tunjukkan bagaimana kami dapat memasuki kota ini, maka kami akan memperlakukan engkau sebagai sahabat."

25 And when he had revealed it to them, they struck the city with the edge of the sword. But that man, and all his relatives, they released.

Lalu ditunjukkannyalah kepada mereka bagaimana mereka dapat memasuki kota itu, dan mereka memukul kota itu dengan mata pedang, tetapi orang itu dengan seluruh kaumnya dibiarkan mereka pergi.

26 And having been sent away, he went out to the land of the Hittites, and he built a city there, and he called it Luz. And so it is called, even to the present day.

Orang itu pergi ke negeri orang Het dan mendirikan di sana sebuah kota yang dinamainya Lus. Demikianlah nama kota itu sampai sekarang.

27 Likewise, Manasseh did not destroy Bethshean and Taanach, with their villages, nor the inhabitants of Dor and Ibleam and Megiddo, with their villages. And the Canaanite began to live with them.

Suku Manasye tidak menghalau penduduk Bet-Sean dan penduduk segala anak kotanya, penduduk Taanakh dengan segala anak kotanya, penduduk Dor dengan segala anak kotanya, penduduk Yibleam dengan segala anak kotanya, dan penduduk Megido dengan segala anak kotanya, sebab orang Kanaan itu berkeras untuk tetap diam di negeri itu.

28 Then, after Israel had grown strong, he made them tributaries, but he was not willing to destroy them.

Setelah orang Israel menjadi kuat, mereka membuat orang Kanaan itu menjadi orang rodi dan tidak menghalau mereka sama sekali.

29 And now Ephraim did not put to death the Canaanite, who was living at Gezer; instead, he lived with him.

Suku Efraimpun tidak menghalau orang Kanaan yang diam di Gezer, sehingga orang Kanaan itu tetap diam di tengah-tengah mereka di Gezer.

30 Zebulun did not wipe out the inhabitants of Kitron and of Nahalal. Instead, the Canaanite lived in their midst and became their tributary.

Suku Zebulon tidak menghalau penduduk Kitron dan penduduk Nahalol, sehingga orang Kanaan itu tetap diam di tengah-tengah mereka, walaupun sebagai orang rodi.

31 Likewise, Asher did not destroy the inhabitants of Acco and Sidon, Ahlab and Achzib, and Helbah, and Aphik, and Rehob.

Suku Asyer tidak menghalau penduduk Ako, penduduk Sidon serta Ahlab, Akhzib, Helba, Afek dan Rehob,

32 And he lived in the midst of the Canaanites, the inhabitants of that land, for he did not put them to death.

sehingga orang Asyer itu diam di tengah-tengah orang Kanaan, penduduk asli di negeri itu, sebab orang-orang itu tidak dihalaunya.

33 Naphtali also did not wipe out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and Bethanath. And he lived among the Canaanite inhabitants of the land. And the Beth-shemeshites and Bethanathites were tributaries to him.

Suku Naftali tidak menghalau penduduk Bet-Semes dan penduduk Bet-Anat, sehingga mereka diam di tengah-tengah orang Kanaan, penduduk asli di negeri itu; tetapi penduduk Bet-Semes dan Bet-Anat itu menjadi orang rodi bagi mereka.

34 And the Amorite hemmed in the sons of Dan on the mountain, and did not give them a place, so that they might descend to the flatlands.

Orang Amori mendesak bani Dan ke sebelah pegunungan dan tidak membiarkan mereka turun ke lembah,

35 And he lived on the mountain at Har-heres, which is translated as ‘resembling brick,’ and at Aijalon and Sha-alabbin. But the hand of the house of Joseph was very heavy, and he became a tributary to him.

dan orang Amori itu berkeras untuk tetap diam di Har-Heres, di Ayalon dan di Saalbim, walaupun mereka mendapat tekanan berat dari keturunan Yusuf, sebab mereka menjadi orang rodi.

36 Now the border of the Amorite was from the Ascent of the Scorpion, to the Rock and the higher places.

Daerah orang Amori itu mulai dari pendakian Akrabim, dari Sela, terus ke atas.
